DESCRIPTION: Laforet Bourgogne Chardonnay from Maison Joseph Drouhin is made from 100 percent Chardonnay grapes, picked by hand, coming from all over Burgundy. It derives its bouquet and taste from various "terroirs"; its general character from Macon, its crispy structure from Chablis, its body from Rully, Chassagne and Puligny-Montrachet, and its overall nascent complexity from the young vines of Joseph Drouhin's own "Crus". It is often the entry-level wine leading to the great white Burgundies. To drink it provides the simple pleasures of a classic Burgundy.

TASTING NOTES: "Fruity and full of life. This is a classical white Burgundy and a good entry level wine for Burgundy in general. The color is golden yellow, with a greenish glint. The aromas are reminiscent of fresh grape and green almond. Elegant texture". - Véronique Bo 86 Allen Meadows' - Burghound.Com 2007 Bourgogne-La Forêt: (bottled under screw cap). A straw and floral nose is fresh and expressive with a similar palate profile...
